conference in Santa Clara, California. A related issue emerging on the delivery system side is the backlog of dashboard style tools, which were part of nearly every clinically oriented demo or slidedeck we saw, from EHR to analytics vendors, not to mention the mushrooming number of care coordination plays out there.
I am in New Orleans attending the 2013 HIMSS conference. Let me highlight a few key points and reflections I jotted down as I sat through several presentations about MeaningfulUse (MU) and the future of clinical informatics: Health IT is about improving clinical workflow efficiency and patient care.
on the day before the official opening of the 2014 HIMSS Conference , rather than in his Chicago office a week or so in advance.

Expanse for us represents the development over several years of an EHR that we designed for the post-MeaningfulUse era. It also wasn’t very public-facing in just plugging away quietly, even skipping the HIMSS conference one year. There are major established players in the EHR space. Very different.
